Those are quite good ERB-style Sword & Planet. Paizo has reprinted 'em all I think. <br /><br />I read Carter's "Under the Green Star", it was an odd mix of fairy-story & Sword & Planet. It didn't really work for me, but I could see some inspirational material for a writer with a grasp of how to blend genres.Dave Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11210387108701067975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32365859.post-88292196854084485982010-07-28T22:20:50.424-05:002010-07-28T22:20:50.424-05:00Never even heard of paragaea.

I like the Skaith books pretty well too.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32365859.post-38089765122127714892010-07-28T22:18:44.201-05:002010-07-28T22:18:44.201-05:00More than a few of us are hoping for an s-&-p ...More than a few of us are hoping for an s-&-p revival with Disney's John Carter movie coming.<br /><br />I've been finding alot of ebooks of s-&-p available now (for the Kindle, at least.) Charles clued me in on Dray Prescott. I've also found Kline's Venus trilogy, the first two of Lin Carter's Callisto series, and even the Gor titles.<br /><br />I haven't bought them all, but they're out there and accessible now.<br /><br />Of course, outside of the e-realm, Paizo's Plant Stories continue, and it looks like they are getting back to their roots. The next announced title is some Robert Silverberg s-&-p tales collected in one volume.Paul R.

Almuric comes pretty high. <br /><br />Have you read Paragaea, by Chris Roberson?Dave Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11210387108701067975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32365859.post-69420073892923665602010-07-28T09:42:34.181-05:002010-07-28T09:42:34.181-05:00Yes, I love some S & P.
